Earthling Easter
A dialogue-only sequel to Earthling Christmas13 total reviews
Comment from Wendy G
A very clever dialogue - and I wonder what connections he will make between the human traditions and symbols, and the reality of the meaning of Easter. Will there be a follow-up to reveal his findings? Imaginatively and well written.

This is a neat entry for the Dialogue Only Writing Contest. I liked reading it. My favorite line that made me smile was: a luxurious foodstuff known as "chocolate".
Here is a question that really should make people think:
"And yet, if this festival of Easter does commemorate the execution of Jesus, then surely this should be the more meaningful occasion of the two?"
Nicely done.

Thank you so much! :)
Comment from Julie Helms
I didn't see your Christmas one, but this is very interesting: An alien view looking in on our earth rituals. It would be very easy to misconstrue things through outside observation.
You do a fantastic job with dialogue. I had no problem following who was saying what. The lack of contractions adds to the alien feel to it. I hope to hear a report of what they find! Julie

Thanks so much, Julie - the absence of contractions was a definite choice! I'm glad it was easy to follow. Earthling Christmas actually took place here on Earth. It took the form of a series of reports from Dvorzgah based on his study of the city of Melbourne at Christmas time. :)
